Add Refiners for your Site Collection(Part 2)


Once we have verified that the Content Type we created from Part 1 is already reflecting to our Site Collection.

Go to Site Content then Search for the "Site Pages" or "Page" Library(Where your Default Page is stored).

In our Example my homepage is located in "SitePages" library



Once your in the Site Page Library, in the ribbon select on the Library > Library Settings

Under the Content type section select the "Add from existing site content types" link. This will give you all the available Content Type for our Library. Select the Content Type we have created earlier the "Global Seach Page Tag" Content type





Hit OK to completely add our Content type to our Library. Now go back to our Site Page Library. 

We now need add extra value for our Homepage(Home.aspx). We can do that showing in the default view the Site Columns we have added by going to the "Library> Modify View" in the Ribbon. Check or Enable the check box for our Column("Global Funding Source")


With this the Global Funding Source column should now be displaying our default view. Now we need to add value to it, on the ribbon select Library>Quick Edit. 

I have added the "Funding Source 1" value for the "Global Funding Source" column


Now we need to make sure the the Search will be able to pick up our updates. We can force it by going to the Library Settings then in the "Advanced settings". In the middle part of the page click on the "Reindex Document Library" then confirm


Again we need to wait for Search to pick up our settings.
